Mumbai Indians are the strongest team around. It is a great opening game for us. It will be a real test of where we are at and how far we can go in this competition," said Vettori.He gives everything to the game. I think he is going to do a great job as captain.Former India captain Anil Kumble joined the Mumbai Indians from RCB as a chief mentor. "Everyone has to move on and unfortunately he is not here this year with us.The New Zealand spinner, who handed over RCB captaincy to Virat Kohli last season, said his role this season would be to play as a senior member and contribute to the team's success.Hopefully, the senior guys like me, AB (de Villiers) and Chris Gayle can support him (Kohli)," said Vettori.Vettori also wished his fellow countryman Jesse Ryder a speedy recovery. "Everyone knows Jesse. Everyone wants to see him here (at the IPL). We all wish him a speedy recovery," said Vettori.Heaping praise on Kohli, Vettori said the Indian batsman is incredibly committed, which is an outstanding quality to be a leader.
